I reckon if Johnstone has already resigned for us an announcement soon-ish would be good for abit of feel good factor at this point in the season where the fans morale is low. That said, he’ll probably be weighing up his options.

We need to do everything we can to keep him and build the club around him. He’s the only world class player we have and would walk into every other team in Super League.

Quote: jonh "It’s not really important is it.

It is what it is and we all need to move on and stop being so petty.

I miss the old days on this page, used to have some good debates with Big Al, but on the occasion I met him and his lad found him to be a good bloke.

I don’t think it’s an isolated incident sadly social media and the ability to hide behind a pseudonym gives some people that sense of false confidence because they don’t have the abdominal fortitude to say it to peoples faces.

In no way would I ever condone violence towards anyone but I do think Mike Tyson sums it up perfectly with his quote.

“Social media made you all way too comfortable with disrespecting people and not getting punched in the face for it.”

I enjoy meeting others off here and other forums they are to a man so far really passionate knowledgable rugby league people even if we don’t agree it’s always good to have a chat.

I didn’t realise anonymity was a requirement on these sites.'"

I know several posters who post under several usernames 2,3 and 4 in some cases, they must think they have a sense of power coming on here trying to stir the pot and discredit posters, which is their sole intension. It's amazing that when there's any discontent someone will pop up out of the blue to delve into someone's personal life with vitriol and falsehoods and break up the discontent, these posters know who they are and have no credibility left but continue to swap and change to try to hide their identity. As the saying goes though john MUD STICKS.

Said in the Sun today (so it must be true) icon_rolleyes.gif that Wigan will sign him due to French going back at the end of the season. I hope it's wrong but if not good luck to the lad. It also said Wakefield are focussing on resigning Miller.

Quote: Yosemite Sam "Said in the Sun today (so it must be true)
I shoe that isn’t true as it would mean as they say French going home which would be a loss to Super League.

He would be an ideal replacement for French though due to him being an X factor player and Wigan can accommodate the risk factor financially of having him sat in the stands potentially due to their financial status.

It does seem plausible as if French has decided he wants to go home then Wigan will be on the look out for an outside back and I believe they are looking to use the quota spot that French would free up on strengthening other positions.

The fact it is plausible doesn’t always make it true though.

Losing TJ and keeping Miller would be very disappointing for me

We should look to keep Tom imo. The club has a bad feeling enough about it this year without losing our most exciting player. Although I've no doubt that the club will be having those talks with Tom and the player probably holds all the cards on this one. Tom might see it as time to move on given his age and contract situation. I woulnd't blame him.

Exactly.

He/his agent will test the water and see what's on offer before committing...having said that, I do hope he remembers the faith and loyalty the club gave him when he was long-term injured.

Quote: snowie "and here lies the problem being the anonymous site, years ago when Big Al, RR, Phil was around quite a few of us got together and met up mainly the Brennan Rooney fund raising and others and guess what not a problem, and had some great times together games, events it actually brought fans together respective of difference of opinions, some of us don't need to hide behind alias names in fact mine is a nickname I got at work.

I know Jonh and he comes over as a decent person willing to help as he has me in the past, Vasty I've met once and wouldn't recognize him if he wobbled up to greet me but I wouldn't expect him to attack me just because we don't share opinions

you need to practice what you preach and stop being the drama queen'"


I don't think I could attack you, I'm more decrepit than you are.

Quote: jonh "Here she goes again.

Love you Vasty.

Just wish you had the stones to actually crawl from behind the keyboard every now and again.

You were slating me a month ago for saying 11th would be a result this season….now you are the biggest critic.

Keep hiding behind the keyboard and being the laughing stock fickle “supporter” everyone knows you are.

Rest of us will get on with talking rugby and not being keyboard Warriors.

So sad so bitter.

Ps despite your recent change of heart I personally still hope you are right from your thoughts last month…not this month….and Trinity finish higher than 11th.

Also make your mind up on that one.

I’m reminded about the old sayings about empty vessels when I read your posts.

…but seriously are we top 6 or relegation fodder because in a few short weeks you seem to be struggling with that decision.

My opinion, just like it was at the start of the year was we will finish 11th, possibly 10th at best.

At least one of us is consistent and also not scared to meet in real life.'"


Supreme hissy fit, the best I've seen in a while.

If you really wanted to confront me at a match I'm known by many but why? It's just a forum. You post anonymously on here and I don't agree with you and I certainly don't like the way you flip flop between us and Wigan, but it's only Jonh I'm disagreeing with not whoever you really are, why people can't grasp that I don't know.

You claim to be knowledgeable about the game and you could be Poching himself for all I know. But unless you reveal your real identity (I seriously suggest you don't) then you have ZERO credibility just like me. Sadly you can't have it both ways, you post under a user name then that's all you are. The only person who ever had any credibility on here was Daddycool because we all knew it was Michael Carter.

I've been told by at least two posters on here who know you that you post under at least one other name, so pot and kettle or what. eusa_naughty.gif

I've only ever posted my twaddle under the one name and no not the inoffensive Fisherman who wasn't me. Vastman loves the sound of his own voice far too much to share it with anyone else. eusa_whistle.gif

I absolutely don’t want to “confront you” or anyone else to be honest. It’s not about confronting anyone. I guess I’m old school where I enjoy meeting people rather than sitting behind a screen. The point being made that it was ironic I was getting told off for use of the word keyboard warrior term when the definition is that of someone who hides anonymously behind a keyboard.

As I’ve said, I miss the old days when a good core of people all knew each other and used to have a pint or good chat at the ground even if they didn’t share the same views.

Met a good few people off here and the other forums and found everyone to be spot on.

We seem to be really labouring this point.
